The RCMP20 Series is ideal for the following applications:

How it works

Mode 2 and Mode 3 EV charging stations differ mainly in how they handle fault currents, particularly AC and DC currents, and the level of protection they provide against electrical hazards.

In summary, Mode 2 systems with the RCMP20-03 monitor AC and DC faults to enhance protection for earlier or portable charging setups. In contrast, Mode 3 systems with the RCMP20-01 focus on detecting DC faults that standard RCDs miss, improving safety for permanent charging stations.

Availability

The RCMP20 Residual Current Monitors are available in individual boxes. Sample requests can be placed through authorized Littelfuse distributors worldwide. For a listing of Littelfuse distributors, please visit Littelfuse.com.
